Mutations are the changes that take place in the genes of any organism. Genes are those portions of chromosomes that code a functional protein. All the proteins, traits, features and factors that are present in an organism are a result of genes present in an organism. Mutations in these genes make them non-functional or cause the genes to make a defective protein that finally and mostly are harmful and deleterious for that organism in which mutation take place.

As a medical professional, it is important to be able to discuss how genetic processes such as translation regulation can directly affect patients. Think about some situations that might involve translation regulation.   Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words: Why is translation regulation important? What are some examples of translation regulation in humans? Select one of the examples you provided and explain what happens when translation regulation goes wrong.
The metabolic pathway below is used for the production of the purine nucleotides adenosine monophosphate (AMP) and guanosine monophosphate (GMP) in eukaryotic cells. Assume each arrow represents a reaction catalyzed by a different enzyme. Using the principles of feedback inhibition, propose a regulatory scheme for this pathway that ensures an adequate supply of both AMP and GMP, and prevents the buildup of Intermediates A through G when supplies of both AMP and GMP are adequate.
